Ticket Giveaway: Anthony Bourdain Live In Brooklyn!

See TB play his first Brooklyn show ever

Anthony Bourdain is appearing at BAM's Howard Gilman Opera House in Brooklyn on June 9.

Anthony Bourdain plays shows. No, not guest shreds with Josh Homme or Handsome Dick Manitoba. Not this either. “It’s me walking out on stage,” he tells us an in extra-gravelly New York brogue. On June 9, Bourdain will do just that, marking his Brooklyn debut at the Brooklyn Academy of Music with 90-plus minutes of shoot-from-the-hip rawness.

As he told us in a recent interview, the gig will combine stories, some very short video clips and special guests. “Basically, I’m going to talk about a good number of substantive issues. A couple of things I’ve been spoiling to address in a public way, what I’ve learned in almost 12 years of traveling and then just talk about anything that pisses me off that week. It will be a food– and travel-centric discussion for sure.”
